If this was reversed.....19 yr. old male takes off with baby.....has controlling parents......I bet there wouldn't be any hand wringing sympathy for him. I imagine the wish would be that he have no contact EVER with his baby and demand he spend time in jail.....not getting therapy and understanding.
I agree that when a father takes off with the child, away from the mother, people have little sympathy. I would have little sympathy for him, unless he could prove Mom was abusive or negligent or posed a serious risk somehow. There is a double standard.
